Balancing Act


Courtesy balances tolerance. When someone is being tolerant toward me, I should be courteous in return.

Humility balances adoration. When someone showers me with praise, I should remember how small I really am.

Gratitude balances kindness. When someone treats me with kindness, I should fully appreciate the gesture.

Generosity balances attention. When someone offers me their attention, I should give them the best I have to offer.

Judge J on Reciprocity

Give as good as you get, I always say. When you spot a con, it’s payback time! Too many good natured dupes snookered by fast-talking bums need a criminal court to even up the score and dish out a little justice. None of this gives me pleasure. Grim satisfaction is more like it, applying the law fairly to humiliate those who deserve being put in public stockades. And if I can’t meet out appropriate punishment, I sill know what goes around comes around. The law of averages in a good crap game proves everything will eventually balance out.
